TEST PRINCIPLE

Testing with the iHealth system is based on the measurement of electrical currents generated by the
reaction of glucose with the reagent of the test strip. The iHealth system measures the current and converts
it to the corresponding blood glucose level.
The strength of the current produced by the reaction depends on the amount of glucose in the blood
sample.

IMPORTANT TEST INFORMATION

Please read the following:
Severe dehydration and excessive water loss may cause inaccurate results.. If you believe you are
suffering from severe dehydration, consult your healthcare professional immediately.
Inaccurate results may occur in severely hypotensive individuals or patients who are in shock. Test
results that are lower than actual values may occur in individuals who are in a
hyperglycemic-hyperosmolar state, with or without ketosis. Critically ill patients should not be tested
with blood glucose meters.
If you think your blood glucose results are inconsistent with your feeling or symptoms which you are
experiencing, repeat the test first. If you have symptoms or continue to get similar results, follow the
treatment advice of your healthcare professional.
If you are experiencing symptoms that are inconsistent with your blood glucose test, and you have
followed all of the instructions provided in this Owner's Manual, contact your healthcare professional
immediately.
Use only fresh whole blood samples to test your blood glucose.
Do not use test strips that are expired or appear to be damaged as they may return inaccurate results.
The lancing device is for self-use only. Do not share or re-use lancets. Please refer to the Lancing Device
Manual for the detailed procedure.
